Your in the yard about 10m inside the inner wall.

Ok, cool. Then I guess I’ll go help Aphail, at least for this round. If baddies 3-5 do something I’ll have to shift focus to cover the squishy types.

Oh wait, I’ll send Gat over to Aphail and I’ll stay in reserve to react to 3-5.

In reply to Aphail MacRoach (msg # 923):

Caith can try hitting the shadowy foe with DRAGONSBREATH, but is that Quarrybolt fireproof? Pyrric Victory and all that... :(

Hitting incorporeal creatures is a whole different kettle of fish but INFLICT WOUND will probably work.

No plan survives first contact with the enemy, so they say, but that applies to the enemy as well. :)

These people have insane stats! Even higher than most monsters in the book! Btw GM my hit is 5 health:)
And and is d8+2

It sounds like Caith might have one to deal with herself scratching at the window of the house.

Who said they're people? And these guys are just the minions.....

Adjusted..I'll add the +s from the sword to your sheet as well.

Thats the one with Aphail + Gat, they're literally right outside the window of the dwelling.

Ooooh, I read it as the sounds coming from the far side as if one of them had snuck around toward the rear.


So a defense of 19... just to clarify, defense is added to the hostile attack roll, and the total still has to be under the attacker’s “attack” stat correct? Or am I misremembering how the mechanic works? I’m at work at the moment and can’t look it up in the books.

What? Minions already so powerful? I don't think the monsters are canonical? Very rare to have monsters with stats that are so insane

Usopi must roll under attack - defense. So for one on one fignts must roll critical hits

Yeah, it's getting complicated, and that bloody thing just hit Alphail too.

Thanks for the backup Gat though, because I had a nasty feeling this was a distraction from an attack on the house's inhabitants.

EDIT: Better to light a hearth up than curse the darkness, but cursing the darkness looks pretty good right now.

Should I summon a fey to help us attack?

Bit difficult to do that in the middle of battle...

It works out to -2 so technically Usopi can only hit if he gets a 1.

Checks book. No, canonical...slight reskin but no stat changes. :)

lol, even with Moralltach it’d be a hit on a 1 only. Hopefully their attack is low enough that I’ll at least be useful as a shield. :P

In reply to Usopi Venia (msg # 943):

Pairs or more would be useful.

* Dons HR hat*

Think of it as a team-building exercise.

* Removes HR hat and sets on fire*

Do arrows work the same when used in attacking? Like, if Holt, Brannon, and I are all attacking one monster, but Brannon and Holt are using bows, does the monster split it’s defense between the three of us?

Arrows ignore defence but there are a lot of modifiers. Easier to whack with weapons I feel. I wonder what monsters are these.

In reply to Usopi Venia (msg # 943):

They attack at 26. Even my 15 def counts for little.

In reply to GM (msg # 944):

If you have removed your HR hat, you are now traditionally supposed to perform the safety dance...

In reply to GM (msg # 942):

I guess vampires since no other creatures have +2 to abr due to strength and these have insanely high scores. Probably high level vampire knights but if so quarry bolt should kill them?

Well it acounts for over 50%. Thats nothing to sneeze at.

Nope. Remember Hellrots were a special case in that even the touch of a relic slays them instantly.

So they are vampires? Gulp

Nope. But lets stop with the guessing, takes the mystery out of things. ;)
